I don't think there is a country in the world that doesn't understand it will never be able to depend on the USA for security or trade. It s not just that they elected Trump because we know that is temporary but the fact that they could elect another someone like Trump is a persistent threat.

As an American I encourage every country to decouple, and as I understand every country is working on it. Mark Carney of Canada said it best, it will never be the same, ever no matter what the future is because trust that has lasted 90 years has been broken. Canada will never have the same relationship with the USA.
